    @kristinegift - That selection should see you through the season of running in the dark quite well. Other than replacing batteries, you should be all set for years.

    I was injured last winter and never even thought of this necessity, thanks everyone for the prompt to get ordering from reflective stuff!

    I saw someone running in NOXGEAR the other night as I came home in the dark. I was very impressed with the visibility. Yes, a little expensive but it is also very visible.

    I took some of your recommendations and picked up the Amphipod reflective "vest". Seems to work very well (pic below is of me at about 20' from the flash of my phone). I have a clip-on stobe light I wear on the back and the Nathan LED band I mentioned above that I wear on my shin just below my knee. Judging by how much room cars gave me, I think I've got the "be seen" part down, still working on the "see" part though.

    I'm in the military and I get issued reflective belts. They work pretty great.

    I bought a few rolls of this stuff and just started ironing it on everything I wear when I run. It works well and is pretty cost effective.
